    Price is right, will ship from China, so you will wait a bit and what if you have a problem... Before I would buy that, I would buy a Garmin Nuvi, new or used and keep a plastic bag in my pocket in case it rains. Lots of guys do that, Tom Tom bike gps's are cheaper than the Garmin bike version. Just my .02.

    The only thing I like about a dedicated motorcycle GPS is the ability to play the sound through the bikes speakers. Thats the only reason why I havent bought a car gps for my bike.

    To get an idea of the screen size hold up an iphone 4 or 5 where you'd place it on your bike. 4.3 inches seems mighty small. I guess if you're prepared to part with 90.00 to try it out...

    Look for the same GPS on Amazon and read the reviews. I think as with most China crap you will be wasting your money.

    And they probably are infected with Spyware and reporting back to the Chicoms with gleaned data
